Running the entire 45000km length of the Himalaya via Bhutan, Nepal and India, is the Great Himalaya Trail - Robin Boustead has taken on the challenge to map the world’s longest and highest walking route.
Robin Boustead is the brains behind the Great Himalaya Trail - what he hopes will one day be a mammoth trek across the entire Himalaya - an epic 157-day trek reaching up 6 2000m, dipping down to 870m, and traversing some of the world's wildest mountain landscapes.

This trail takes trekker high into the Himalayan mountain range, over arguably some of the most spectacular scenery in the world. The trails has so far been mapped through Nepal, Bhutan, India and Pakistan and work is now under on the Indian and Tibetan sections.
Pioneer, Robin Boustead says doing the trail is well worthwhile: "Get out there and do it! Get some serious field experience and if you don't have that, then do it with someone who does. No matter how tough you think it's going to be, it will tougher! But it is a great, life-changing experience - you genuinely don't come back the same person. Of course, the views are spectacular too!"
